Chapter 111: The capital is not Ba County
On the day of Han Xiufeng's wedding, Ren He went to stir up the situation, and even humiliated Han Xiufeng in person, Pan Er was deeply impressed by him. The next day, I went to the fairy square to send a silver ticket, so I also recognized Ren Ren.
On the day of Han Xiufeng's wedding, there were too many people in the small courtyard, how could Ren He remember his small role, and subconsciously asked, "Do you recognize me?" ”
Without waiting for Pan Er to speak, Ren Yan blurted out: "Brother, he is Han Si's long-term follower." ”
Ren He reacted and said quietly: "Sure enough, it's an old man, so your master has arrived and lives here?" ”
Pan Er is also a person who has seen the world now, the official master has seen a lot, there are two living in this courtyard, one of them is from the sixth grade of the military attache not only lives in a room with him, sometimes even called a brother, no longer the soil bun when he was in Ba County, and he will not be afraid of Ren He, hehe smiled: "Master Ren, you want to live in the hall, my young master is talking to Master Qian inside, please wait in the courtyard, Rong Xiao will go to report first." ”
Thinking of Han Si, Ren He was depressed, and scolded: "Presumptuous, master, I still need you to report when I stay in the hall!" ”
"Master Ren is so majestic." Pan Er looked up at the east and west rows of "champion rooms", then looked back at the hall, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "This is the capital, not Ba County, and it is not your turn to let the master give orders." If you want to live here, it depends on whether my young master is in a good mood or not, so I won't let you live. ”
"This is the Chongqing Guild Hall, not your Han family!"
"It's true that this is not my young master's house, but my young master is the first thing here! The first thing you know, hahahaha, it's the steward of the guild hall! ”
Ren He couldn't figure out how Han Si, who had just arrived, turned into the head of the Chongqing Guild Hall, and was puzzled, Han Xiufeng heard the movement in the courtyard and walked out with Qian Junchen, and saw that six or seven people came at once, including Ren He, who had humiliated him, settled down and said, "Master Ren, it's been a long time." ”
Ren He didn't think that Han Si was really the head of the hall, and when he saw a civil official from the sixth rank standing beside him, he hurriedly handed the luggage to Ren Ren, and made a gesture respectfully: "Ba County raised the son Ren Xingzhi to see the master, dare to ask the lord's surname?" ”
Han Xiufeng naturally wouldn't let Qian Junchen introduce himself to himself, and arched his hand: "Master Ren, this is Qian Junchen, a member of the Ministry of Rites, and Master Qian!" ”
The Ministry of Rites is the yamen of the examination of the council, and it is also the most noble yamen, and any yamen can go to any official who is born in donations, but the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials can't go.
Ren He was in awe, and hurriedly bowed his hand again: "It turned out to be Master Qian, who has been admired for a long time, disrespectful and disrespectful!" ”
Qian Junchen liked this feeling of being respected very much, bowed back, and asked with a smile: "A few of you are here to try, Brother Zhixing and I just said that you should come to count the days, I didn't think that Cao Cao Cao arrived, you arrived just after we finished speaking." ”
"He Junjie, the son of Bishan in the late life, has seen Master Qian."
"Liu Shizhen, the late son of Jiang Jin, has seen Master Qian."
He Heng and Liu Shanyang, who were traveling together, reacted, hurriedly handed over the luggage to their respective families, and respectfully saluted Qian Junchen.
"They are all fellow villagers, so there is no need to be polite," Qian Junchen replied with a salute and smiled sideways: "The three of them have traveled thousands of miles to Beijing, and they must be tired all the way to saddle horses." This is Brother Han Zhixing, the head of our Chongqing Hall, the three of you know each other, please Brother Han help you register the fire card, and settle down as soon as possible to rest. ”
"Master Ren, Master He, Master Liu, please inside." Han Xiufeng smiled and arched his hand.
"Han Si, are you really the head of the guild?" Ren He looked incredulous.
"How can this be fake?" Du San stretched his waist and walked out of the east room, put his arm around Han Xiufeng's shoulders and said with a smile: "My second brother is the head of the guild hall, if you want to live here, you have to pay the hall fee for my second brother." ”
After Du San finished speaking, he put down his arm and opened the padded jacket intentionally or unintentionally, revealing the complement on the official uniform inside.
The complement of the military attache is not the same as that of the civilian official,
He Heng looked down on a military attache like Du San in his heart, and asked puzzled as if he hadn't seen it: "Master Qian, what about Second Master Fei, I remember that Second Master Fei is the first thing." ”
"The second master used to be, but now it's not, he just went out for a little something, and he will come back after a while, where he doesn't talk outside, the three of them come in and say."
"Let's go, what are you doing in the yard?" Du San yawned, lifted the curtain and walked into the hall first.
Han Xiufeng really wanted Datou and Pan Er to drive out the Ren brothers, but this was originally a place to provide accommodation for the Chongqing Mansion Juzi who entered Beijing to take the exam, so he could only sit on the table of the Eight Immortals, picked up the registration book resting on the incense case, and said lightly while signaling Pan Er to grind the ink: "The guild hall has a rule, the three of them can live, and they can live as long as they want, but each person has to pay two taels of silver for the pavilion fee." ”
He Heng lived for the second time, and he knew the rules of the hall, so he took out the money bag from his arms and took out a handful of broken silver: "There should be two taels here, I'm tired of Brother Han." ”
"Don't talk about the tiredness, Master He, you sit first."
Ren He secretly scolded the villain, turned around and motioned for Ren to take the silver, and sat down with a butt.
Han Xiufeng put on a businesslike posture, first collected the cash and then registered, after registering their fire cards, he raised his head and said: "Three, seeing that the New Year is coming, the Shuntian Mansion and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division have strict control over people coming to Beijing from other places, and your family members must also register and make a register, and bother your family members to show their household registration cards." ”
During the Qianlong Dynasty, the imperial court was strict with the homeless people who begged for a living in the capital, and the Shuntian Mansion often investigated and repatriated with the soldiers and horses of the five cities.
Because of this, He Heng didn't apply for a household registration card for his accompanying family members when he came last time.
Ren He and Liu Shanyang had never been to the capital before, and everything was based on He Hengma's head, not only did they not help their families do it, but they also didn't think about the household registration card at all, thinking that they just had a fire card.
The three of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.
"Didn't bring it?" Han Xiufeng stared at Ren He and asked.
"We don't know about this, can't my brother not have a hukou card?" Ren He asked with a slight frown.
"It's not that it's impossible, it's that it's not safe."
"What's not safe?"
Han Xiufeng put down his pen and said slowly: "Non-Beijing soldiers and civilians in Beijing have to be registered and registered, and they must all be entered into the circulation number book of Jiachang and Fangzheng. If you don't register, don't enter, and don't be found by the yamen, it doesn't matter, if you are found out, not only will your brother be in trouble, but even I, the head of the association, will be implicated. ”
How could Qian Junchen not guess that Han Xiufeng was planning to rip off the bamboo, so he pretended to be serious and said: "Three, you are too careless, you brought your family to the capital, and you didn't go to the yamen to get a household registration card for your family!" There is a guild hall here, if there is no guild hall, who would dare to let you live in those inns outside. ”
"Master Qian, I'm ...... The last time I came, my family didn't have a hukou and it was fine. ”
"Last time was lucky, Brother He, this time is different from the past, and now it is not peaceful today, and the Gyeonggi Heavy Land is naturally stricter than the peaceful year."
"Master Qian, we're all here, how can this be good?"
"Brother Han, they are all fellow villagers, you can help you think of a way." Qian Junchen turned around.
Han Xiufeng thought to himself that you either don't open the door, but once you open the door, you can cooperate so tacitly, and forced a smile: "What else can I do, I can only spend some money to ask someone to go to the yamen to do something." ”
"It's okay to spend some silver, Brother Han, how much silver will it cost?" He Heng asked eagerly.
"No less than ten taels per person."
"So much!"
"Master He, it's not the first time you've come, you should know that everything in the capital is expensive! Tell me, what can you do with ten taels of silver in the capital? ”
He Heng raised more than 3,000 taels of entanglement for entering Beijing, and was ready not to go back in case he fell, he had silver on his body, and he was not panicked, seeing that Qian Junchen said that this matter was very troublesome, and he didn't want Qian Junchen and Du San to see the jokes from the military attache of the sixth grade, so he agreed: "Ten taels is ten taels, and I will bother Brother Han." ”
"Don't talk about the trouble, Han is trusted by the Hanlin Yuan Ji Master, the Ministry of Rites Master Qian, the Ministry of Industry Wang and other fellow villagers in Beijing, and is entrusted with the important task of taking care of this hall, so it is natural to serve the three of them well."
Han Xiufeng pulled the tiger skin as a banner, and showed it off in a matter-of-fact manner, so he asked them to report the age and place of origin of their respective families, register them one by one, note the reason for Beijing, accept forty taels of silver, and said with a smile: "Three, the hall is so big, and there are only a few rooms in total, so I can only give three rooms to three people, and I can only be wronged by the three and their respective families." ”
"I know that, last time it was a family."
"I know best, and those who don't know will really think that I treat the three of them slowly." Han Xiufeng smiled, and then said: "Then the hall will open this year, Master Qian, Master Du and Second Master Fei are all eating in the hall, and the families of the three and three can also partner up, and the food and tea money will be settled every ten days, I have estimated that the monthly food and tea money per person should be enough for one or two or five silver." When you go out, it's not as good as being at home, you can save it, the three of you said, didn't you? ”
"Each person needs one or two or five pieces of silver a month, so I might as well go out and eat!" Ren Ren didn't know how high the prices in the capital were, so he couldn't help muttering.
Du San coldly burst out: "I can't even afford to spend this little money for food, what will I try when I come to the capital." ”
"Big brother, this can't be forced." Han Xiufeng glanced at Du San, then turned around and smiled: "Master Ren, Second Master Ren, if you two are too expensive, you can go out to eat." In addition, the guild hall has the rules of the guild hall, and the door is locked every day, and you can't go out after it's locked. ”
